Pororó-Popó Lyrics in English Elis Regina
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Pororó-Popó by Elis Regina from Portuguese to English.
Bate-papo, par constante
Chitchat, constant couple
Poropó pó pó
Poropó pó pó
Dançando na festa
Dancing at the party
Beijinho na testa é só
A little kiss on the forehead, that's all
Só?
Only?
Seu telefone eu anotei
I wrote down your phone number
Cupido me laçou
Cupid lassoed me
E apertou o nó
And tightened the knot
Poró, poró pó pó
Poró, poró pó pó
Todo o dia eu discava
Every day I used to dial
Pororó pó pó
Pororó pó pó
Discava escondida de mamãe
I used to dial hidden from mom
E da vovó
And from grandma
Tudo começou de brincadeira
Everything started as a game
E eu fiquei brincando a vida inteira
And I kept playing my whole life
Pó poró poró pó pó
Pó poró poró pó pó
Todo o dia eu discava
Every day I used to dial
Discava escondida da mamãe
I used to dial hidden from mom
E da vovó
And from grandma
Tudo começou de brincadeira
Everything started as a game
E eu fiquei brincando a vida inteira
And I kept playing my whole life
A vida inteira
My whole life

bate-papo — chat / chitchat
Bate-papo literally translates to "hit-chat" or "beat-chat," but it means a casual conversation or chitchat. It's a fun, informal compound word that captures the essence of lighthearted communication.
In the song, it sets the scene for the playful, budding romance. The lyrics describe the beginning of a relationship, starting with these casual chats that eventually lead to more, making bate-papo a key word in understanding the song's narrative of young love and innocent flirtation.
